Well it's been a busy couple of months of fun in the outdoors for me and my family. We have camped in the Lakes and also bought a inflatable kayak for some river fun.
We went to the Lake District to watch my dad run in the Scafell Pike Mountain Marathon, and whilst we were there we climbed Blencathra, my biggest UK mountain to date.I did some pot holing in a huge plastic tunnel system and also did some zorbing.

I also went on my first Cub camp (Even though I am still officially a Beaver) We stayed in the Kidland Forest in Northumberland. It was a very busy weekend, with a game called "Capture the Flag" and a 7 mile hike in the hills to the Scottish Border. We built dens and cooked all our meals on a campfire.
Anyway here are some pictures of me having fun.

And finally here is a video of me and friends on the river with our Kayak.

Today myself and my dad took Isla our Labrador on a 4 mile walk up to the top of one of our local hills. With it being Easter, we took a chocolate egg and some hot chocolate with us to keep our energy levels up.

Below the pictures is a up-to-date copy of my hill/mountain log book.

I had a nice time at henhole today. We got up early to watch the sun come up. And we had a cup of cocoa. We didn't get to go in refuge hut because there was people sleeping for a night. It was really frosty.
